Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
I'm opening a bug to document intent to re-introduce 'libnss-mysql':
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/libnss-mysql
See discussion from Jing below, including links to modernized packaging.
For reference, here are all Debian bugs related to the old libnss-mysql:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?archive=both;dist=unstable;ordering=normal;repeatmerged=0;src=libnss-mysql
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=111910
I suppose that if we manage to update the package and make it compatible
with Debian style we can do an upload of it to NEW that closes this bug.
